Should point out that a write up is very much optional.

I don't think I'll have time to collate the teams soonish, and it'll give people a chance to post information if they'd like, so expect a thread sometime tomorrow (12 hours+)

I think having a write up in the voting thread makes it too long and tough for people to find the teams.

International Coach
Opening Pair :

Shane Watson & Gary Kirsten

A fine opening combination of a lefty who can play long innings and the rightie who is capable enough of giving 'The Masters' a great start or lets say at least a platform for Don to come and unleash his shots.

Shane Watson & Gary Kirsten together :

128 tests | 9242 runs @ 43.41 | 23 ( 100s ) / 39 ( 50s )

Middle Order :

Sir Donald Bradman ( ATG ), Kumar Sangakkara, Lord Colin Cowdrey & Kevin Pietersen

Beat this middle order! Righties like Donald, Cowdrey and KP to go with the lefty Sangakkara. These 4 has scored nearly 30k runs @ 60+ with nearly 100 tons and 100 fifties. Thats a remarkable conversion as well.

331 tests | 28530 runs @ 62.41 | 92 ( 100s ) / 106 ( 50s )

Lower Middle Order :

Andrew Flintoff, Malcolm Marshall ( ATG )

Fantastic aggressive players who are proven match winners with both bat and ball. Marshall probably is one of the TOP 3 all time great bowlers without a shed of doubt.

160 tests

As bowlers : 502 wickets @ 26.86 | SR of 56 | 25 ( 5w ) / 4 ( 10w )
As lower order batsmen : 2655 @ 25.31 | 5 ( 100s ) / 35 ( 50s )

Bowlers :

Bill O'Reilly ( ATG ), Fred Trueman ( ATG ) & Terry Alderman

A bowling attack of Trueman, Marshall, Alderman, Freddie and Tiger can take car of any goddamn batting line up.

135 tests | 621 wickets @ 23.77 | SR of 59.7 | 42 ( 5w ) / 7 ( 10w )

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Batting facts :

- A total run tally of 37772 @ 52.91 with 119 hundreds and 145 fifties among them is one of the best batting line up led by the legend - Sir Donald Bradman
- With this team we can easily score 550 against the 250 scored by the opponents. An innings win there ;)

Bowling Facts :

- Wicket at every 9 overs means we would bowl any good batting line up within a day's play
- Overall bowling average of 25.31 means we can get them out around 256 within a day's play

Fielding Facts :

- 475 catches by fielders
- 163 catches + 20 stumpings by keeper
